I have been an Aircooled VW fan for decades, and Im on my 3rd (1:1 scale) car now.
I have been collecting these toys for at least the past 25 years.
I sold all of my Hotwheels blister packs, but kept all of these (plus) and I still don't have enough room in my curio.

From last night to today, Amazon's ML ROM listing page looks like it's back in stock, but when you log in to buy, oops, none to sell.

I don't understand the extreme popularity and demand when I don't think there's been any comics or cartoon in ages of ROM.

Well a lot of Gen-X'ers who're now into collectables remember the comic and are going bonkers over the new figures. Man, I hope they don't make the Dire Wraiths (Rom's enemies) were super creepy.

I vaguely remember ROM had some buddies who had their own armor or color schemes. I barely remember anything from the old comics.

Yes, Rom's girlfriend volunteered to become a spaceknight to fight the Dire Wraiths. Her codename was Starshine.

How in the blue blazes do I just have instant recall of this stuff from when I was a kid?

That's kinda cool x

Yeah I like the color scheme, purple and teal. Haven’t seen something like that in awhile. Monster High uses too much pink in G3 imo so this is kind of refreshing.

So I got my Mega(TM) Godzilla set in today.

I'm 3 bags in and seriously feel like committing a war crime. These fucking instructions are complete ass.

That being said, I do like there are no stickers and some of the building techniques are pretty cool.

EDIT: for some reason this didn't post and that's probably a good thing.





Turned out kind of cool, but really bland color wise. 543 pieces and had to take apart sections over half a dozen times because the directions where freaking horrible.

Still not bad for $37 and it's freaking Godzilla.

^ I think Megabloks makes Pokemon too, so maybe Charizard wants a shot at the title.

Never got into Pokemon. Would like to see him up against the D&D Dragon.

It's crazy. I'm 40, and I can tell you ins and outs of Marvel lore up until some time around the early 00s, everything Godzilla, MMA, and most horror films, also up until around the early 00s. But I couldn't tell you what I had for dinner last Thursday lmao. Sometimes it frustrates me, but, in all honesty, I'm glad I remember the cool shit, bc it's really what I care about. Causes me a degree of trouble at work though, bc, not interested.

So , my Lego Dragon turned up today from Germany.

I popped into a shop today that is kind of a Mish mash of everything. The owner buys bankruptcy stock or overstock. They have their core lines like building stuff , garden bits , DIY stuff plus the lucky dip that is there . So, today I stopped off there and they had .....






Now , I own no Transformers and I have an interest in G1 ones but I loved the look of the pink one ( I think @Kardashians is having an influence on me ) and considering that the 4 of them came to £16 or $19.94 or less than $5 each... well...I now own 4 Transformers....I get they're not a hugely popular line of Transformers but they look cool.

Also had Storm Shadow, the large one at the same price, a few Funko pops , MoTU Revelations , some Jurassic World dinosaurs and Ghostbusters figures at similar prices...

I may get the Storm Shadow figure and one of the Funko pops.

Amazon finally is selling Super7 ReAction+ Duke and Serpentor around 1 month after people reported seeing them in Target, so I'm guessing 1 month temporary exclusivity.

Amazon also has ML MCU Ironman under $15. Been ignoring Star Wars TVC and saw Cobb Vanth TVC under $10.

I would have guessed that's the product of Robin and Huntress having sexual relations.
